Band of the Irish Guards in Windsor 26 February 2026

The Band of the Irish Guards providing musical support for Changing the Guard in Windsor on 26 February 2026. The New Guard was from 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards, and the Old Guard, also, was from 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards. The band included a couple of musicians from the Coldstream Guards band filling-in. It was a cool morning with very low clouds which occasionally looked threatening, and it was quite windy in places (wind can affect the recorded sound). It mainly stayed dry throughout – there might have been occasional slight drizzle. The usual aircraft noise was nowhere near as loud as on some recent previous visits, with the planes (hidden in the low cloud) flying over the town after they'd taken off from Heathrow Airport. The crowds seemed generally to be very light. 0:00 The band emerging from the barracks, marching up Sheet Street and round into the High Street on their way to Windsor Castle, leading the New Guard, playing "Blue Plume" (C.H.Jaeger), and then "Bravura" (Charles E.Duble). 3:25 The band marching off the High Street, continuing up Castle Hill and entering the castle, leading the New Guard, playing "Star of Erin" (E.G.Horabin). 5:22 The band marching back down Windsor High Street and round into Sheet Street towards the barracks, leading the Old Guard, playing the tail-end of "Red Men's March" (R.B.Hall), and then "Scarlet and Gold" (Lloyd Thomas). 8:50 Filmed from quite a long way down Sheet Street, the band, leading the Old Guard, marching back down Sheet Street and approaching the barracks, playing "The Contemptibles" (Leo Stanley).
